From bake sale to platform
SignupNation started when our founders—frustrated PTA volunteers themselves—realized they were spending more time coordinating spreadsheets than actually helping their community.
They built a simple sign-up tool for their school's bake sale. It worked so well that other parents asked for it. Then other schools. Then entire districts.
Today, SignupNation powers sign-ups, volunteers, donations, tickets, and auctions for over 50,000 organizations. From classroom volunteers to million-dollar galas, we help communities come together.
We're headquartered in Austin, Texas, with a remote-first team across the United States. We're backed by mission-aligned investors who share our belief that technology should serve communities.

Why we built SignupNation
We built SignupNation because organizing people for good causes was harder than it should be. Spreadsheets and email chains lead to double sign ups, missed reminders, and hours of manual work. We wanted one place where sign ups, volunteers, payments, and events could live together—so organizers spend less time on logistics and more time on what matters.
Our goal was never to add another siloed tool. We designed SignupNation so that schools, nonprofits, and community groups could run everything from a simple potluck to a full gala with tickets and auctions, without juggling multiple subscriptions or logins.
Who we serve
SignupNation serves anyone who coordinates people and events: PTAs and school districts, nonprofits and churches, sports leagues, clubs, and community associations. Our users are volunteer coordinators, event planners, fundraisers, and administrators who need reliability and simplicity.
We offer a free tier so budget-strapped groups can get started, and nonprofit discounts on paid plans. We prioritize clarity and support so that small teams can run like big ones.
How we help organizers
We help by giving you one platform for sign ups, volunteers, donations, tickets, and auctions. That means one link to share, one roster to check, and one place to see who signed up and who paid. Automated reminders cut no-shows; built-in payments reduce manual reconciliation; and exports give you rosters and reports for check-in and accounting.
We also focus on ease of use: most people launch their first sign up in under 10 minutes. When you need more—tickets, auctions, team members—you add them without switching tools. Our support team and help center are there when you need guidance.

The principles that guide us
Everything we do is driven by these core beliefs
Community First
We build for the organizers, volunteers, and donors who make communities thrive. Their success is our success.
Simplicity
Powerful doesn't mean complicated. We obsess over making complex tasks simple and intuitive.
Impact
Every feature we build is designed to help organizations achieve more with less effort.
Accessibility
Great tools should be available to everyone. We offer a generous free tier and nonprofit discounts.
What we believe
We believe that organizing people to do good should be simple. Technology should reduce busywork, not add it. We believe in transparent pricing, clear product design, and support that actually helps. We also believe that communities thrive when volunteers and organizers have tools that work the way they think.
What's next
We continue to improve SignupNation based on feedback from real organizers. We're investing in better reporting, smoother checkout, and deeper integrations so that your event data flows where you need it. If you have ideas or needs, we want to hear from you—reach out via our contact page.
